boost::signals2 linker error with a simple program

In an experiment with Boost.Signals2, I tried to compile the following very naive program. The program did compile, but I got a linker error (see the bottom of this question for the error message).

// hello.cpp
#include <boost/signals2.hpp>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    boost::signals2::signal<void()> sig;
}

Why was there an error and how to fix it?

(Update on 2014-09-17: The issue is still unresolved. The program can be built successfully with GCC4.9 and Code::Blocks on Windows XP or with Clang and Xcode 5 on Mac OS X Mavericks, but for some mysterious reasons, the linking error just doesn't go away when the program is built with GCC4.9 and Eclipse on Mac OS X.)

I have found the following related threads on SO, but none seem to answer my question.

1. boost::signals2 undefined-reference when linking libraries together
2. Boost linker errors when using header only libraries
3. Does the boost.signals2 library need to be built?

Here is the error message:
